I have a magnet on my fridge that says, “I can’t be good all of the time.” I like this philosophy in life. It’s good to have dedication to and discipline around your health, but sometimes you just want to eat a cookie. That’s where these little morsels come in. They have absolutely NO flour in them, they have just the right amount of chewiness to them, and they taste AMAZING.

Who would have guessed that it was so easy to make a flourless cookies?

I have discovered that my favorite way to eat these is right out of the freezer. Because I have made several batches while perfecting the recipe, extras have been stored in the freeze. Sometimes I get a craving after dinner, and it’s been easy to grab a treat since I know they are there.

Hi Katja, I love your blog! Yummy and inspiring. I remember Gayna one day during teacher training pulling chocolate out of her bag after lunch while saying, “I can’t always be good!” Love and hugs, Allison

Wow! I just made these cookies and they are delicious! I used natural peanut butter (my favourite) and I didn’t have any good quality sweet chocolate chips so I used just a handful of Hershey’s chipits and then I added some raw cacao nibs.

I just made these, they are the best “paelo” cookies I have ever had. so moist.. like Mrs. Fields.. OMG.. I used Enjoy Life Chips.. my “dough” wasn’t so thick I dont know how you got those little dough balls, so mine were a little flat.. i also left out the extra almonds and put in a dash of vanilla.. SO SO good. Thank you for posting this!

I’m so glad that you enjoyed them. My family loves them too. Almond butters come in many different consistencies so yours may have been a bit runnier than the one that I use. I actually prefer mine more flat. My kids like them puffier. 🙂

I see above you mentioned you were thinking about making them with sunflower butter. Did you ever try that? My daughter is allergic to tree nuts/peanuts so that’s what I was going to do, just curious if you tried that and what you thought. Thanks.
